So, I just ran into a snag with AP3. There's a section set in Germany in the original draft, in fact a big chunk of the book takes place in that country, and I'm having difficulty trying to figure out how to reconcile a rewrite with my outline notes so far. The main reason for this is because I stopped working on the outline for AP3 when I decided to focus heavily on finishing AP4. Now coming back to this months later, I forgot the ideas I had before.
My approach to rewriting AP3 is similar to how I rewrote AP1. The beginning of AP1 and a few other missions were mostly unchanged. So with AP3, I'm trying to recontextualize the book with my published versions of AP1 and AP2 while keeping the same story beats of the original AP3 draft. But also after finishing AP4, I have to be careful not to add details that will contradict with that. Man, writing a second draft of AP3 is going to be a lot harder than I thought.
